Bake sales, sponsored runs, product catalogues, silent auctions — these are the classics. Parents know them. Directors know them. And everyone quietly dreads them.
They work, a bit. But they cost an enormous amount of staff time, lean on the same 2–3 parent volunteers every year, and generate lumpy, unpredictable income. A small nursery can spend 20+ staff hours on a single event that nets $400.
You don’t need a better version of a bake sale. You need a quieter fundraiser that keeps generating income in the background while your team focuses on the kids.
WishWell is an automated birthday fundraiser for your nursery or preschool. Every quarter, parents see whose birthdays are coming up — kids, teachers, staff — send a short well-wish, and donate a small amount to the school.
Three steps. We do the first one for you.
Book a free 30-minute call. We build your account, add your children and teachers, and brand it for your nursery.
Each quarter, parents see upcoming birthdays for children, teachers, and staff. They send well-wishes and donate to the school.
Every birthday child and teacher gets a real card signed by the community. Donations deposit straight into your school’s account.
If your community doesn’t raise it, we donate the difference out of our own pocket. No fine-print games.
Limited-time promotion. Guarantee applies to new accounts during the promotion period.
We also write your launch email, your first two newsletter blurbs, and your parent announcement. All you do is send them.
With passive, automated fundraising. WishWell adds every parent and teacher to a quiet, year-round birthday fundraiser: on a child's or teacher's birthday, the parent community sends a well-wish and donates a small amount to the school. No bake sales, no fun runs, no volunteers required.
Birthday fundraising, by a large margin. A typical event fundraiser eats dozens of staff and parent hours. WishWell takes 15 minutes to set up once (we do it for you) and then runs itself — raising roughly $50/parent/year with zero ongoing work from your team.
Every quarter, parents see whose birthdays are coming up — both children and teachers. They send short birthday wishes and donate a small amount (often $1 per wish) to the school. On the child's or teacher's birthday, a real physical card arrives signed by the community.
WishWell doesn't feel like a fundraiser. It feels like wishing a child happy birthday. Donations are tiny per action, optional, and tied to a moment parents actually want to show up for. Most nurseries report that WishWell is the one fundraiser parents actually enjoy.
No — in fact, small nurseries benefit the most. You need about 50 people (parents + teachers) to qualify for the $250 guarantee. That’s a small 2-room nursery. The smaller you are, the more WishWell's automation matters, because you have fewer staff hours to give up.
Book a free 30-minute discovery call. We’ll set up WishWell for your nursery live on the call and have your first birthday wishes ready to go.
